Actually they have. They were doing nothing on special teams in the last stretch, and scoring a lot 5 on 5.

They looked good at 5 on 5 when the game started. Then penalties happened.

Is there a #1 centre that is worse defensively than Sean Monahan? Putrid below the dots in his own end and does the puck-watching controller disconnect far too frequently on the back-check. Thank goodness for that top-ten release.

Same with mini eggs oddly enough

The Avs are by no means the toughest team in the league, but man are we the weakest!

That may be true, but I haven’t seen any team get outclassed to this extent.

Embarrassing is a word that could still be used for a performance far less tilted than this.

They are who I thought they were. Lets see what happens in Game 4. Rittich better start the 3rd

[Saqe]

If they can't match the speed of Colorado, they need to clog up the neutral zone like Columbus has done against Tampa.

[Gundo]

F^#k it! Come on 9-1 embarrass us and light a fire under the top lines ass.

[2macinnis2]

They clearly need a good practice to give Peters a chance to right the ship and perhaps significantly change the game plan.

Not to make excuses but it’s probably difficult to adjust on the travel day.

3rd period Flames.

Most 5 goal periods in the NHL. S'all we need. Let's go boys.

It's the playoffs and what makes the NHL so unique, Tampa Boston and soon to be Calgary will trail their series they are the best 3 teams in regular season.

Whataboutism doesn’t help this cause direwolf

The Flames go down together with Notre Dame Cathedral today. A rebuild is in the works.

There will be changes to the next line up, without question and I can see one involve Brodie...he has been awful.

The patience with Brodie should definately be used up by now. He had several terrible plays last game and has been completely useless this game. I don't see how we can sit a guy like Valimaki when we have players being terrible on the team. Fantenberg should probably sit too in favor of Kylington to give the D a fresh look. We have some options, and Peters should use them, just like he did in the regular season.

They might not lose 9-1 but I have no doubt they look worse tonight than they did that night.

[Manhattanboy]

Peters has to wear this as well. He has no answers.

4 mins for "blood" is one of the dumbest rules in hockey, my comment had nothing to do with the score in this game.

You should get penalized extra if you cause an injury. Although I agree I saw nothing of sorts with Calvert.

Backlund just not smart though. On the PP, its a 2 on 2 and he's waving his stick taking the chance on either a hook/high stick. Apply the back pressure and angle him to the boards so he dumps it in and you can regain possession.
